The former chief of staff of the former bididenas biden chief to testify on the mental state

Chairman of the House Supervisory Committee James CommerR-kY., Launched an assignment so that the former deputy staff chief of president Joe Biden appears on Friday before the committee to testify concerning the mental state of his former boss during an oval service.

Commer, who directs the Chamber Committee on surveillance and government reform, sent requests for an interview to four main aids from the White House Biden, including the former assistant of the president and deputy chief of staff Annie Tomasini.

The voluntary appearance of the former assistant was requested on May 22, 2025 and she was to appear before the committee on July 18 or this Friday.

For unknown reasons, however, Tomasini’s lawyer asked to coer the assignment to force him to appear.

Commer broke the events leading to the assignment in his letter to Tomasini, before directing it down the letter for the legal request.

“The Committee is looking for information on your assessment and your relations with the former president Biden to explore if the time has come for the congress to return to potential legislation in order to fight against the surveillance of the presidents to serve under its authority under article 4 of the twenty-fifth amendment, or to propose modifications to the twenty-fifth amendment,” wrote Commer.

“The Government Supervisory and Reform Committee is the main surveillance committee of the House of Representatives of the United States and has the power to investigate” any question “at any time under rule X of the House,” he continued. “In addition, the rule of Chamber XI Clause 2 (m) (1) (b) grants the committees of the House of Representatives” to demand, by assignment or otherwise, the presence and testimony of these witnesses and the production of these books, registers, correspondence, memoranda, papers and documents according to which it will judge “.

Commer added that if Tomasini had questions, she should call the supervisory and majority staff of government reform.

The president had previously told Fox News that these “non-elected bureaucrats” had an overwhelming influence on Biden and may be de facto “in his place”.

With Tomasini, the Committee sent requests from an interview to the former director of the National Policy Council Neera Tanden, former principal advisor to First Lady Anthony Bernal and former deputy director of Oval Office Ashley Williams.

Bernal was also assigned to appear after refusing to appear voluntarily before the Committee.

Williams and Tanden have already been interviewed by members of the committee.

The GOP’s effort to discover the truth of what happened in camera during the Biden administration occurs shortly after the release of “Original Sin” by the host of CNN Jake Tapper and the journalist of Axios Alex Thompson, who claims that the White House Biden was controlling the perception of the failing health of the aging president. The book exposes the concealment of Biden’s decline and its decision to present itself to re -election.

Tapper said in an interview with Piers Morgan last month that what Biden’s help had done to hide his state to the public could be “even worse” that the Watergate scandal during the presidency of Richard Nixon.

“It is a scandal. It is undoubtedly, and perhaps even worse than Watergate in some ways,” said Tapper. “The only reason we invoke Watergate is just to specify as, it is not Watergate – it is a completely separate scandal, perhaps even worse.”

In his letters, Comer said that even if the committee has been investigating concealment for almost a year, “the new details concerning the obvious request for the obvious request of the president Biden Bideny of the actions of the White House staff and the knowledge of the relevant information during the previous administration”.
